Together with fellow researchers at Mila (the Québec AI Institute) and the Vector Institute, we have the pleasure of inviting you to join the Music + AI Reading Group. Our reading group gathers every Friday at 2pm Eastern Time.

Our topics of interest cover (beware : the list is not exhaustive !) :

• 🎹 Music Generation
• 🧠 Music Understanding
• 📇 Music Recommendation
• 🗣 Source Separation and Instrument Recognition
• 🎛 Acoustics
• 🗿 Digital Humanities …
• 🙌 … and more (we are waiting for you :]) !

Our purpose is to build an interdisciplinary forum of researchers, students and professors alike, across industry and academia, working at the intersection of Music and Machine Learning. During each meeting, a speaker presents a research paper of their choice during 45’, leaving 15 minutes for questions and discussion. The purpose of the reading group is to :

• Gather a group of Music+AI/HCI/others people to share their research, build collaborations, and meet peer students. We are not constrained to any specific research directions, and all people are welcome to contribute.
• People share research ideas and brainstorm with others.
• Researchers not actively working on music-related topics but interested in the field can join and keep up with the latest research in the area, sharing their thoughts and bringing in their own backgrounds.
